"Anti-gravity is the idea of creating a place or object that is free from the force of gravity. It does not refer to the lack of weight under gravity experienced in free fall or orbit, nor to balancing the force of gravity with some other force, such as electromagnetism or aerodynamic lift."

(2) why you believe it.

[quote]I think that any force that opposes the gravitational integration of matter can be regarded as anti- gravity force. Electromagnetic repulsion can also be regarded as anti-gravity. The energy possessed by a body acts against gravitational integration, and so that also can be regarded as anti-gravity force; however, it is just a pseudo force in the sense that it represents the force equivalent of the energy.

Yes, Bill, what gan has in mind is a repulsive field, sort of anti-Higgs I suppose. Years ago I would have dismissed it out of hand, but times have changed. With Dark Energy on the scene and the quantum world spookiness, I have a much more open mind. Let's hope my brains don't fall out.

Only we decided to invert it and put piezo emitters on a platform and fire the above audio sound at the floor to levitate the platform. What we found was to lift 12.5 gram the sound wave intensity cracked floor tiles which only a well placed file cabinet is currently hiding and we sort of had to abandon the project.
